Urine is produced in the kidneys. When you take in fluid or food, it passes from your digestive system, into your circulatory system, and into your kidneys where it is filtered. The kidneys then get rid of waste products and extra fluid through the urine. The ureters are tubes that connect the kidneys to the bladder. The bladder empties the urine via the urethra, the tube you urinate through. Ideally, your urine would be a pale yellow in color. This would indicate you’re hydrated. Urine naturally has some yellow pigments called urobilin or urochrome. The darker urine is, the more concentrated it tends to be. Dark urine is most commonly due to dehydration. However, it may be an indicator that excess, unusual, or potentially dangerous waste products are circulating in the body. For example, dark brown urine may indicate liver disease due to the presence of bile in the urine. Bloody, or reddish-colored, urine, is an indication of other potential problems, including direct injury to the kidneys. If you have these symptoms, it’s important to see a doctor. Outside factors that affect urine Sometimes dark urine doesn’t have anything to do with hydration or overall health. Instead, it’s related to something you ate or drank or a medicine you took. If your urine is dark, think back to what you’ve eaten. If you’ve had beets, berries, rhubarb, or fava beans, these can all cause your urine to appear dark. Some medications can cause dark urine. Usually your doctor will let you know beforehand that this is a possible side effect. Some examples of medicines known to do this include: laxatives with senna
